History Anime / GoShogun

* CoolCar[=/=]FlyingCar: Remy's, which is seen in the opening minutes.

* DemotedToExtra: Though while the time frame and the series' ending makes this example justified. The titular mecha is just shown as a hanging toy in Remy's car.

* NamesToKnowInAnime: HirotakaSuzuoki as Shingo, KanetoShiozawa as Leonardo, MamiKoyama as Remy, HideyukiTanaka as [[SpellMyNameWithAnS Kerry/Killy]]. DanGreen as Leonardo for the English dub of [[TheMovie Go Shogun: The Time Étranger]]

* BackToBackBadasses: Shingo and Killy, Cuttnal and Kernagul

* BittersweetEnding: it is not entirely clear whether[[spoiler: Remy lived or not. Although most fans who have seen this movie elect to regard it as closure for Goshogun (since there's no plausible room for anything else) and heavily lean towards the assumption that she does not.]]

* CreepyChild: the Messenger of Fate

* CulturedBadass: Leonardo Medici Bundle

* EldritchAbomination: the Beast of Fate, especially when it grows
* EldritchLocation: the town where our six friends are stuck
* TheFaceless: Remy as an old woman. We never see her aged face.

* FlashbackNightmare: subverted, as it is not clear whether Remy's childhood flashbacks are actual memories or fantasies.
* GenreShift: the series parodies kids' robot shows while the sequel is a deadpan serious psychological thriller.
* HeroicSpirit: certainly Remy.

* KnifeNut: Killy Gagly
* LastStand: an [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome awesome]] one for Remy

* LittleMissBadass: it was not a good idea to mess up with Remy even when she was a kid.

* TrueCompanions: Remy and her team

* CoolCar[=/=]FlyingCar: Remy's, which seen in the opening minutes.

* KatanasAreJustBetter: While Bundle's no slouch with a machine gun, his weapon of choice is a katana.

* MusicalisInterruptus: In SuperRobotWars, Leonardo Medici Bundle's ship has "The Blue Danube" as its default background music. This song is being played by enormous speakers, and is the one of a scant few situations in which [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Elzam V. Branstein]] (a.k.a. Ratsel Feinschmecker)'s theme "Trombe!" has been [[AscendedGlitch overridden]].

* BittersweetEnding: it is not entirely clear whether Remy [[spoiler:lived or not.]]

* {{Determinator}}: Remy

* LikeBrotherAndSister: Remy and her team mates .

* AdultChild[=/=]CaptainErsatz: The character of Remy is intended to be a grown up version of [[MagicalPrincessMinkyMomo Minky Momo]], they both have the same voice actor MamiKoyama, they do have the same mindset, speech-patterns and emotions.

There are also eight Go Shogun novels, written by Takeshi Sudo and published in 1982-1991. ''Go Shogun: The Time Étranger'' is a film adaptation of the eponymous fifth novel. YoshitakaAmano made most of the covers and illustrations, as well as a number of pictures in the artbooks.

* LikeBrotherAndSister: Remy and her team mates (with the [[{{YMMV}} possible]] [[ImpliedLoveInterest exception]] of Bundle).

''Go Shogun'' has a sequel: a movie ''Go Shogun: The Time [[GratuitousFrench Étranger]]'' (戦国魔神ゴーショーグン 時の異邦人, ''Sengoku Majin Goshōgun: Toki no Étranger''), released in 1985. The movie takes place 40 years after the series. Remy Shimada, a former member of the Go Shogun team, now an old woman, lies in a coma after a car accident as her former team mates and Docouga generals watch it helplessly. But in the depths of her subconscious Remy goes back to the time of her childhood and youth and fights death along with her five comrades. The movie is strikingly [[GenreShift different from the series]] in its dark and surrealistic tone, resembling the works of Satoshi Kon (a Japanese director noted for serious, thoughtful, arthouse films).

A meteor strikes the Earth and is found to emanate a powerful new energy called [[AppliedPhlebotinum Beamler]], which is used to power a battle robot, GoShogun, and a teleporting fortress, Good Thunder. The Docougar Crime Syndicate, lead by crime lord [[BigBad Neo Neros]], try to steal the secret of the energy from the inventor of GoShogun, but he kills himself rather than let them acquire it. His son Kenta is targeted by Neo Neros next, but he is taken in by the crew aboard Good Thunder, who travel the world fighting Neo Neros's forces with GoShogun. Eventually Kenta learns that he is actually an alien. In the end, [[HeelFaceTurn Neo Neros's three officers side against him with the GoShogun crew]]. After he is defeated, [[ButNowIMustGo Kenta takes GoShogun into space, back to his home planet]].
